letra de flowers & chocolates - zoan

came a long way
still got ways to go
one thing hasn’t changed
it’s been me against the world
with my good old companion, the piano
i’ve been slow
to discard past relics
i didn’t mean to outgrow
the products they selling
i wonder what i’ve got to show
with the game, there’s no telling
i reckon it might take more than a couple of seconds
to recognize the boy who dreaded
in the light of the man that’s setting
trends and fads
of the essential truths the world be forgetting
i understand that your camp
might take a while
to understand the style
of the man who pleaded peace
jokes on you, fam
words hold weight
words hold power
i guess i’m a tease

and i don’t know what to make of the power dynamics. it’s like some people see you doing something, and they feel a type of way. like d-mn… this that dude i kicked it with back then… he wasn’t sh-t back then so how’s he doing all this now… or it may be a case of if he’s getting bread and not having a meal with me, then it’s like f-ck him! but i always thought that was kind of dumb… chilidish you know… when people winning, you got to give them their props. their flowers. and for me, people were throwing stones. but you gave me flowers, and that’s why i think so fondly of you. and i feel proud that someone would want to honor me, when there can be backlash from such a decision. it means that i made a difference to someone and knowing i did this allows me to sleep at night

hangman gambit
i want someone to dance with
i want to know i held hands with
lady justice
when everyone was trying to makeout with revenge
sad how old friends
might see me in glory and splendor
outperforming the contenders
and feeling like they’ll never
reach that point
i guess an elite group is what i joined
still the people’s champion
thought the people might covet
for another leader
that’s not so goonish and thugging
i’m only bugging
if the children feel like they can’t relate
just got lucky when it came to fate
not all heroes wear capes
and some sport a fancy crown
some were jealous
some were bitter
but you were happy
when i came to visit the town

and the mystery might be, “how. how did this all happen???” and to the cynic, they might say it was a fumbling of luck and opportunities but to the mature, they would see it as, “it’s because he was faithful”. and the dichotomy between the two is what creates the power balance between a hater and a lover, but haters don’t faze me because some people hate you because of the way you are loved. they are envious of the love you receive, but really, the sad part is, if they just worked hard and had faith they can make a difference too, they’ll be showered with the same love. i guess the point is, we give flowers and chocolates to the people we appreciate, and want to make them feel special. and when everyone was throwing stones and trying to make me an outcast, you gave me flowers and chocolates and for that, i’m thankful
